Pasqal ^Company

PASQAL is developing a full-stack quantum computer that will be used to simulate complex phenomena for scientific discovery and to address general problems such as optimization, drug discovery, and machine learning. The company's quantum processing units are made up of hundreds of atomic qubits in 2D and 3D arrays, and their programming environment, to address our customers' needs in quantum computing and simulation.

Pasqal is a French quantum computing company (founded 2019, headquartered in Paris, France, with offices in Massy, Singapore, and Boston) specializing in neutral-atom quantum computers using optical tweezers and Rydberg atom arrays for scalable, programmable qubits. It develops full-stack systems (e.g., Fresnel processor with 100+ qubits, roadmap to 1,000+ qubits) offered as QCaaS via cloud and on-premise. Applications include biotech (quantum simulations for molecular dynamics, drug discovery, protein folding), cybersecurity (quantum-accelerated optimization for cryptanalysis/post-quantum security), and communications (quantum network simulation, quantum sensors, secure quantum links). Pasqal partners with Microsoft Azure Quantum, OVHcloud, Crédit Agricole, Atos, and European initiatives (EuroHPC JU, Horizon Europe). Total funding raised: ~€150–€200M+ (largest: €100M Series B in May 2023 led by Temasek and others; ongoing growth). Private company.
